Mending Wall by Robert Frost
In the “Mending Wall” by Robert Frost, a story is told of two neighbors who meet annually to repair a fence that separates their properties. The wall in this poem is much more than just a physical barrier between two estates, it can be viewed as an emotional or psychological barrier as well. This wall can also be seen as a metaphor for the relationship between the speaker and his neighbor. ... The poem begins by stating that” Something there is that doesnt love a wall, That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it”. Some unseen force seems to tear the wall down just as man isn’t always able to distance himself from others.
